@p Does FSE not support editing posts?
-
@locagainstwall It does not. It does not even recognize posts that have been edited externally.

Better than if you post some long thing and then they read it and then there's an edit and they have to figure out what changed. That was a bigger problem with delete-and-redraft than the hacky implementation: I'd get three versions of a six-paragraph message, I read the first one, then I see the second one, and what changed? Was it important or did they fix their spelling or just decide that one word sounded better than the other? How do I know, should I reread it? Is it worth the effort or am I putting more energy into reading the message than they put into writing it?
That problem hasn't been fixed with edits, they just gave it a more complicated implementation.

I thought the image answered this.

@p @locagainstwall Sounds like client problem. Should be relatively trivial to display highlighted line/character diff between selected revisions.

@p Oh okay. And yeah, that was my question basically. So if I'm replying to someone who is on FSE and I forgot to mention something, I gotta post that in a new reply for them to see it, since edits won't go through. Any particular reason why btw?
